I think I've tried all the 968 forums but this is about the only one I regularly follow anymore. It's the smallest but good people here and not a lot of controversy or arguing. Solid information when you want it.

my inbox had 10 pms this morning... why ?


a thread i posted last night was totally obliterated by one of the moderators. (you wouldn't believe by "who..." not just closed — but, obliterated.


the topic: JFK, and the men who actually "did it." i received 10 pms including one from Bob R, who was a seemed to be a bit more sympathetic than the person who removed the thread.



the 968s....


just a 944 S3 so of course, there's tons of help from 944 and 968 guys... the few guys that we do have exclusive to the 968, know so much about the effin' cars that we're covered.


this month, i'm buying up about 1/3 of a parts car from one of the guys. then back on to the final task of getting the car set up for 170~175 mph...
OD,
Please remember that you are in a technical forum, not the P&C playpen.
Thank you.

Bob,

No, both the 968 and 993 live in the garage when salt is on the ground. The allroad gets the short straw. I grew up in Toledo and have had my fill of cars rotting away with road salt.

I'd be curious if anyone has ever mapped out where we are all at. I am guessing that the bulk would be on the East Coast, followed by another grouping on the West Coast Then there is me, alone in the middle. lol

The UK board can be valuable too; and both RL and the UK have active, even handed moderators which keeps the nonsense quotient low.

I use this forum mainly, over the others. I use Rennlist for all 3 models. The 968 forum here seems to be less active than the 911 and 944Turbo....probably due to there being fewer 968 cars/owners.

Shawn, know what you mean. Mine stays in the garage and on occasion I get to sneak it out! Course then it needs to be cleaned in the cold. Still fun.

Where do you consider the middle sh944? We may be close.

Kansas City. Truth be known, I know at least 5 968's are here, including Aaron's white '95 LSD coupe, Doug's metallic black coupe, and two black cabs. Nearby, we also have Raj's previous SY M030 conversion coupe and I haven't heard from him in a while, but Bruce Ward is also in AR.

Where are you from?

About 80 miles west of Omaha. My daughter will be attending NW Missouri State this coming fall so I should be in your area a lot in the coming years. I have never attended any Porsche get togethers in the area but would like too.
